Why is this not a BIG story?
I’m often amazed at our lack of knowledge
about history. Ordinary people are hungry
for this information, yet the organizations
responsible to disseminate these facts
seem to have an agenda to keep us in the
dark. This is especially true when it comes
to our ancient human history.
I won’t hold you in suspense with this
article: The Ark of Noah has been found.
It’s real. I’ll describe the evidence in some
detail and end with the historical and
religious implications.
How it was discovered
In 1959, Turkish army captain Llhan
Durupinar discovered an unusual shape
while examining aerial photographs of his
country.
The smooth shape, larger than a
football field, stood out from the rough
and rocky terrain at an altitude of 6,300
feet near the Turkish border with Iran.
Capt. Durupinar was familiar with the
biblical accounts of the Ark and its
association with Mount Ararat in Turkey,
but he was reluctant to jump to any
conclusions. The region was very remote,
yet it was inhabited with small villages.
No previous reports of an object this odd
had been made before. So he forwarded
the photographic negative to a famous
aerial photography expert named Dr.
Brandenburger, at Ohio State University.
Brandenburger was responsible for
discovering the Cuban missile bases
during the Kennedy era from
reconnaissance photos, and after carefully
studying the photo, he concluded: “I have
no doubt at all, that this object is a ship.
In my entire career, I have never seen an
object like this on a stereo photo.”
In 1960 the picture [ above] was published
in LIFE magazine under the heading
of Noahs Ark? That same year a group of
Americans accompanied Capt. Durupinar
to the site for a day and a half. They were
expecting to find artifacts on the surface
or something that would be
unquestionably related to a ship of some
kind. They did some digging in the area
but found nothing conclusive and
announced to the anxiously waiting world
that it appeared to be a natural
formation.
Most of the global media turned away
from the find and it became a non-story.
In 1977 Ron Wyatt visited the site.
Obtaining official permission, Ron and
others conducted more thorough research
over a period of several years. They used
metal detection surveys, subsurface radar
scans, and chemical analysis — real
science — and their findings were
startling. The evidence was undeniable.
This was the Ark of Noah.
#1 — the Visual Evidence
The first part of the survey was to
examine the object and take its
measurements. The shape looked like hull
of a ship. One end was pointed as you
would expect from bow [below: D ] and the
opposite end was blunt like a stern. The
distance from bow to stern was 515 feet,
or exactly 300 Egyptian cubits. The
average width was 50 cubits. These were
the exact measurements mentioned in the
Bible.
On the starboard side (right) near the
stern there were four vertical bulges
protruding from the mud [ B ], at regular
intervals, that were determined to be the
“ribs” of the hull [see below ]. Opposite to
these, on the port side, a single rib [A ]
protrudes from the mud. You can see its
curved shape very clearly. Surrounding it
are more ribs, still largely buried in the
mud, but visible upon close examination.
Remember that this object, if it is the Ark,
is extremely old. The wood has been
petrified. Organic matter has been
replaced by minerals from the earth. Only
the shapes and traces of the original
wood remain. Perhaps this is why the
expedition in 1960 was disappointed.
They anticipated finding and retrieving
chucks of wood, long since eroded.
From the position of the object in the
middle of an obvious mudflow, it is
obvious that the object slid down more
than a mile from its original location.
Geologists believe it was originally over
1000 feet higher in the mountain and
encased in a shell of hardened mud. They
think that an earthquake in 1948 cracked
the mud shell and revealed the structure.
This is confirmed by stories from the
surrounding vallagers who tell of its
“sudden appearance” around that time.
Biblical accounts of the Ark describe it as
having as many as six levels. The
assumed shape of the Ark seems
consistent with the bulge [C ] in the middle
of the object. In fact, as we will soon
learn, radar scans of the structure suggest
that this bulge is the collapsed debris of
these levels.
Although most people think of the Ark as
being rectangular, that only applies to the
top decks. The sleek shape of the hull is
necessary to enable the huge ship to
remain stable in the water and survive
tremendous waves.
Path of the Ark (Boat)
According to some sites this is the
direction of the flow down the mountain.
So I made up a image from google earth
showing the direction this may have taken.
This mountain is called “Walls of Heaven”.
The landing point at the top has had some
significant ancient evidence found. (If you
have more information about the original
landing site, before it’s current day resting
place, feel free to comment at the bottom)
#2 — Ground Penetrating Radar
The human eye needs to see reflected
light to recognize an object. To visualize
what remains below the earth, scientists
use microwaves which can penetrate the
ground and bounce back when they hit
something solid. This technique is
commonly used to locate oil and other
minerals. Called Ground Penetrating
Radar (GPR), the apparatus us made from
an antenna that transmits, then listens to
receive the “echo” and prints the result on
a piece of paper. The delay and strength
of this echo tell the geologists how solid
and at what depth the objects are under
the earth.
The team of geologists didn’t scan the
entire object. Instead, they marked out
lines that crossed the object with yellow
tape. Then they dragged the antenna
(about the size of a lawnmower) over the
lines and watched the output on the
paper recorder.
When they got a strong
“hit” — meaning there was something
solid underneath — they would record the
position on the tape [above ]. Later, when
they made a map of the object, the tape
and the location of the “hits” they realized
that there was indeed a structure
underneath the mud.
“This data does not represent natural
geology. These are man made
structures. These reflections are
appearing too periodic… too periodic
to be random in that type of natural
pace.” — Ron Wyatt of SIR Imaging
team
The radar cans revealed this structure
[above] under the mud. The symmetry and
logical placement of these objects shows
that this is unmistakably a man made
structure, most likely the Ark of Noah.
#3 — Artifacts retrieved from the Ark
Using the GPR, Ron Wyatt discovered an
open cavity on the starboard side. He
used an improvised drill to make core
sample inside this cavity and retrieved
several very interesting objects. Below you
can see the artifacts which were sent for
laboratory analysis. On the left is the bore
hole [ see below ], followed by what turned
out to be petrified animal dung, then a
petrified antler and lastly a piece of cat
hair. Comments
